I don't mind showing 'fruits of my labor' but probably subconsciously do it with some reserve. I drive whatever I own to work when its running (!) or the weather permits. None of them hack at me for those. They know I'm addicted!
I don't have a lifestyle approaching lavish or would make any of them uneasy (I don't think) for anything that might be called 'flaunting'.
We have SEVERAL company-wide lunches during the year, where all kinds of stuff comes up: children, recreation, schools, et cetera and all seem very comfortable with each other.
The ONE time we had a group lunch at a private club (I thought they'd think it was a nice luxury) they were clearly uneasy. We never went back. So if I'm 'reserved', that's what I mean.
I've mentioned the 'boss' letter to a few boss/owner friends, and most - like on this board - agree with the theme, not the delivery.
